At left we read what Liz Cheney is going through, on behalf of the United States of America. She’s the daughter of Dick Cheney, the man who was the chief architect of the Iraq War. By spreading the lie that Saddam Hussein was in possession of weapons of mass destruction, he talked the American people into approving of the launch of an aggressive war, which, according to the judgment of the International Military Tribunal at Nuremberg following World War II, “Is not only an international crime; it is the supreme international crime differing only from other war crimes in ...

Cryptocurrency has been on an upward trajectory for years, but the pandemic really seemed to kick things into high gear for the virtual currency boom. Bitcoin recently eclipsed $60,000 for the first time, while Dogecoin is up more than 12,000% from where it was this time last year. There is more money in crypto than ever before, and so it should come as no surprise that the Internal Revenue Service wants its cut from those who are cashing in.

NASA's Commercial Crew program took a great deal longer than expected to produce safe and efficient transportation to the International Space Station. Both SpaceX with its Crew Dragon and Boeing's Starliner faced huge delays that set the program back by many months. Eventually, Crew Dragon fulfilled SpaceX's promise to NASA, but Boeing is still lagging far behind. The company's failed attempt at an uncrewed flight to the ISS resulted in a long list of changes requested by NASA. Now, as Crew Dragon is already taking crews of astronauts to and from the space station, Boeing has finally completed a ...

Rib tools are essential in the shaping of ceramic pieces, especially when you’re throwing them on a wheel. While silicone and rubber versions of these tools are often used for finishing a piece and ridding it of imperfections, potters rely on the ones made of wood for most of the initial shaping. Because wooden tools are quite hard and unforgiving, leaving little room for error, it’s important to choose implements with just the right shape and feel for you. Below, we review the best wood rib tools for ceramics to help you make the smartest choice for your needs.

Work and success are virtually synonymous.

They have been slung over paper-strewn bulletin boards and desks, as they were in the offices of Helsinki’s Museum of Contemporary Art in 1995; suspended from ceilings more than five floors high, with their bulbs collecting in a pile in the basement, as they were at the Whitney Museum in New York when it ...

Building just 22 high-voltage transmission lines that are currently on hold in the U.S. could increase national wind and solar generation by 50 percent and create approximately 1.2 million jobs, according to a new study from Americans for a Clean Energy Grid (ACEG).

Nintendo’s comments contrast with its performance over the past 12 months, when the Kyoto-based company’s fortunes were boosted by coronavirus pandemic restrictions that forced entire nations into lockdown and increased demand for home-based ...
